Songtext von Rope

We have the strength of pride For those days remembered But you take a look outside Our days are numbered It's all in your face This hate and disgrace What a crying shame We all know the name Screws turn, bridges burn While talking heads take up my screen Palms greased for the feast The mouth gapes on this machine A quick drop and a sudden stop I hope, I hope, I hope A quick drop and a sudden stop Leave me enough rope 11:58 Come around, come around on us again The hour's growing late And I can't escape my skin If the wall's too high And snake's inside If the wolves all die Who will feed the lie Screws turn, bridges burn While talking heads take up my screen Palms greased for the feast The mouth gapes on this machine A quick drop and a sudden stop I hope, I hope, I hope A quick drop and a sudden stop Leave me enough rope A quick drop and a sudden stop I hope, I hope, I hope A quick drop and a sudden stop Leave me enough rope Screws turn, bridges burn While talking heads take up my screen Palms greased for the feast The mouth gapes on this machine A quick drop and a sudden stop I hope, I hope, I hope A quick drop and a sudden stop Leave me enough rope A quick drop and a sudden stop I hope, I hope, I hope A quick drop and a sudden stop Leave me enough rope Leave me enough
